In 1860, built against the old, already protected tower in beautiful brickwork, a five-bay long church hall under a slate-covered saddle roof and with a lower, flat-roofed, three-sided closed consistory room against the five-sided closure. The facades are divided by once-intersected, chevron-shaped covered buttresses, are closed off with (ascending) round-arched friezes and have a round-arched window per bay with beautiful wooden traceries dating from the construction period. Internally, the bays are separated by columns resting on consoles - incorporated in a wide, all-round, profiled window sill list - on which the ribs of the stucco net vault - segmental arch vault with insert vaults above the windows - come down. Original, sober bench plan with gentlemen's benches along the side facades; pulpit dating from the construction period with neo-Gothic and neo-Lod.XIV carvings; organ from 1899 (restored in the 1960s). Simple, but good example of a mid-19th century village church.
